to four-year terms by the Governor with the ad-
vice and consent of the Senate. One member each
represents labor, management, and the public.
The Board appoints the Director (Code 1957, Art.

Created in 1959, the Maryland Tax Court per-
forms the judicial and quasi-judicial duties of the
former State Tax Commission (Chapter 757, Acts
of 1959). The Tax Court hears appeals from the
decision, determination, or order of any State
agency or assessing or taxing authority that affects
the valuation, assessment, or classification of
property, the levy of a tax, or the application for
an abatement or reduction of any assessment or
tax, or exemption therefrom (Code 1957, Art. 41,
sec. 318; Art. 81, sees. 143A, 224 to 231, 256,
258, 259, 309). It also hears appeals from al-
lowances or disallowances of claims for refunds of
taxes, and from cancellations of Motor Vehicle
Fuel Dealers licenses (Code 1957, Art. 81, sees.
214C, 217, 310e; Art. 56, sec. 142a).
The Tax Court consists of five judges appointed
by the Governor for terms of six years. One is
required to be a resident of the Eastern Shore, one
a resident of the Western Shore, and one a resi-
dent of Baltimore City. The other two are to be
residents of the State at large. No more than three
judges may be of the same political party, and
each is required to be a taxpayer and a qualified
voter of Maryland. At least two must be members
of the bar of the State of Maryland, and the Gov-
ernor designates one of these as Chief Judge.
